Twelve-year-old Antoine falls profoundly in love with a voluptuous but suicidal hairdresser, a formative experience he never forgets. Much later in life, he seeks to repeat his romance by marrying Mathilde – also voluptuous and also a hairdresser – with whom he forms an intimate and consuming relationship in an attempt to blot out the miseries of this world from their lives.

Happy Holidays,
Thank you so much for posting this lovely film, I haven’t seen it since it came out.
There are many movies produced but only a few worth ones time.
This is one of those rare gems, and even if a person does not like subtitles ( I don’t know anyone like this) it is not a distraction the movie is such a joy: casting, editing, writing, cinematography.
Again thank you sincerely for sharing this hard to find gem!
